I absolutely ADORE IT. It is with out doubt the best sounding car I have ever heard. The 7 speed auto blips the throttle on the down shifts. No drone at cruising speed but open the throttle and it roars and belows to the whole world. I would buy the car for the sound alone. No wonder the gas mileage is so poor on these things. You drive it in manual mode and keep it on the revs just to hear the sound from the exhaust. We drove it for 30 minutes and I never went near the switch to turn on the stereo.
It was FANTASTIC in every way, ride, braking, seats, performance, handling.
TOTAL HOME RUN by AMG and Mercedes!!!

....sooooo....blown V8 or the 63....which is it??
